Good news folks, 9111 is a streetcar that is decorated for the Christmas holiday this season. I wonder as if Gary Mason took to decorating this car. Isn't 9111 a loaner from Callowhill?


Gary works out of Callowhill. He transfered from Elmwood.

Anyway we (Midvale) could trade with Frankford 35 DD50 New Flyers and Nabis for the Neoplans? :) Please?

Friend, I know what you mean. It won't happen though. One thing Midvale could do is swap 5159-5185 for Frankford buses 5258,5275, 5279-5299. If you have ridden any of the NABIs in the 5160 & 5170 groups at Midvale, you know that these buses are slow and lethargic. 5179 on the 55 to Doylestown on a weekday afternoon isn't a laughing affair at all. Neither is a bus like 5163 on the 9 to Andorra at night.

You probably missed out when Midvale had the 8600s. To ride a 8600 on the 57 the entire route was so much fun. I did this with 8639 on the 57 to 4th & Market once.

The operator on Route 75 of 2102 block does not work Mondays. So the fill-in driver if you go Mondays will have a Nabi or a Flyer. Just a word of warning.

A farewell charter is being planned as we get closer to the end. Stay tuned for information on that.


Some more information on the charter"Farewell to the Neoplans".

The charter is tenatively scheduled for march 30th, Sunday. Plans will be to visit various photo locations to get pictures of the Neo alongside other SEPTA vehicles, like a PCC-II trolley. And as a special treat, a tour on the bus of Fairmount Park, tracing as much of the path of the old Woodside Park trolley as we can.

Any information needed contact Harry D. at had2709@aol.com
